The cornea is the clear surface on the front of your eye. Serious, irreversible vision problems can occur when the cornea becomes diseased or damaged. In severe cases, a corneal transplant may help restore vision. Corneal transplants are the most common kind of transplants in the United States. About 50,000 corneal transplants take place each year.
Some people do not produce enough tears to keep the eye comfortable, resulting in a condition known as dry eye. Other steps to help ease or prevent dry eye include: using a humidifier, wearing wrap-around sunglasses, using hot compresses at least once daily, avoiding wind or hair dryers, and avoiding cigarette smoke.

The people here are wonderful and make you feel very comfortable and calm. I don't enjoy going to any kind of doctor but these young women that helped me were absolutely fabulous. I recommend this office to anyone that has any nervous feelings about going to see the eye doctor or any doctor. Five stars isn't enough I will continue to use them from now on.

I had my first appointment yesterday. I was impressed from the minute I went in. It is a very nice building inside and out. The receptionist was very sweet and friendly. I did not wait long to start my appointment. The girl who helped do testing also was friendly and accommodating. The Doctor Patel, was thorough and explained everything, asking if I had any questions. I felt very cared for there. Thank you for all you did to make my upcoming cataract surgery not a scary thing!

I truly had the best experience. The provider and staff members that assisted me are so kind and INCREDIBLE at their jobs. I was nervous the day of for my procedure but everyone made me feel so at ease. Everything they did was so personal. The procedure itself, I am at a loss for words. I went in not being able to see anything even if it was 6 inches from my face to now 20/20 vision. The staff and doctor were so professional and kind. I recommend them to everyone

What an Exemplary Team! My daughters appointment was pleasant and efficient from start to finish. Every department had their own specialty, and you could tell they love what they do. We never felt rushed, and got all our questions answered. I even called later, to ask questions and get clarity on the prescription. Jamie took her time to answer all my questions.at 4:55pm. Kudos!

Dr. Oliva and his staff are seriously the best! They are extremely knowledgeable and kind. I was surprised at how quickly they were able to help solve a problem I have been facing for years. Their examinations are very thorough. During my procedure I felt like I was in great hands and that put me at ease. Highly recommend!

I stopped into the Optometrist shop to have my lenses removed from the frames and reinserted as they were opposite to what they were supposed to be. That's a long story. It was not due to anything that the Medical Eye Center had done. Anyway, I was promptly attended to, and my glasses were returned to me clean and ready to use. Then I asked if the attendant could also replace the nose pads on my back up pair of glasses. She did that with a smile. I was a happy camper, finished and out of there in less than 20 minutes. Great Service.

I've been going here regularly for about two years to treat a dry eye condition. I've always found the staff to be warm, professional, and courteous, but I wanted to give a special shout out for Marissa who did my check-in and initial tests yesterday. She was super professional, knowledgeable, friendly, thorough, and thoughtful. I hadn't met her before and I asked how long she'd been working there. I guessed it had been years, she seemed so competent. She said it had been six months! Amazing.

Had an absolutely great experience at this location. All the staff were extremely helpful and friendly. Very happy with the results. If you're reading these reviews with any doubt about getting work done- let me reassure you; these folks will take excellent care of you and the price of admission is well worth the finished result. Still have both eyes 10/10 would do again.

I had lasik in january2022 and I am so grateful to the entire team at medical eye center for making it happen and getting me through this! The person holding my hand and reminding me to breathe while my eyes were getting Lasik made all the difference! The 1 on 1 call with intro to lasik with Genevieve also made the world of difference too, I had a lot of questions.
I felt so take care of they are extremely thorough and precise with taking measurements and figuring out a treatment plan. The center is clean and professional and everyone is so friendly. Dr. Matt Oliva did the blade free lasik and I opted for the dry eye kit with the plugs which I think is worth it, I have had no issues with dryness. Only miraculous benefits from this thank you so much Medical Eye Center!

The staff is wonderful, very friendly and knowledgeable and you can tell they genuinely care about their patients. Genevieve and Sebastian in particular were so good to me and did a great job walking me through the process and answering any questions I had. Dr Oliva was very kind and straightforward and I couldn't have asked for a better surgeon. I'm three days post-op and already able to see some things better than before my surgery. Absolutely incredible experience!
